The development of China’s carton industry is facing tremendous changes: The current situation of the paper packaging industry is grim. Most of the carton factories are suffering a series of difficulties, high asset-liability ratio, unstable paper price makes their liquidity more tense, fierce competition, huge pressure of environmental protection, difficulties in recruiting workers, high labor cost, and so on.

Since last year, people have changed their past impression of the ‘low-end, low added value’ of the carton industry, and industry concentration has been increased significantly due to the increasing paper price and state's supervision of environmental protection. These new phenomena in the carton industry are huge challenges for some enterprises, but they also provide some others a strategic opportunity of transforming and upgrading and seeking breakthroughs. To grasp the new development trend of corrugated carton printing industry and get rid of the "Red Sea", using the linkage line with good stability, high efficiency and safety is the inevitable choice to achieve downsizing for efficiency, and seek sustainable development!

Cumberland Packaging, a well-known carton group in the UK, purchased the line in the same year. Rengo Co,. Ltd., the Japanese-funded enterprise, also purchased one line and used in their China branch in 2011. Before 2014, the domestic carton industry was in off-line era, and few companies were using linkage lines. Start from 2014, the demand for the inline folder gluer in domestic market began to heat up. Some domestic counterparts only greeted the “Investment Trend” and quickly launched the corresponding products, but did not grasp one of the core demands of the carton factory on the linkage line—stability. Facing the warming market, Dong Fang Precision was not blindly following the trend, but was learning and practicing core skills. Dong Fang Precision, listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2011, moved to a new modern factory in 2014 with its capital advantage. Equipped with a number of high-precision CNC machines that imported from Germany and Japan, and promoted the “Lean Production” model, the new factory has further improved product quality and developed a number of new intelligent and information technologies.
